Trouble in Paradise

Do you think I am that oblivious? Like I wouldn’t find out about how you truly feel. Are you keeping it all to yourself Or are you just talking about me while my back is turned? What did I ever do to you anyway? I barely knew you and then this tropical island we were stranded on started to get colder. Slowly everything started to freeze over, the sun covered behind clouds. You gave me the classic “cold shoulder”, only nodding your head and fake smiling as a response to my comment. I would be outside attempting to get help from a boat or a plane, But if you don’t want to try and make an effort …then why should I?
